Bioshock 2 Hints

Get to the Sister Vent.

  • 1 of 8: Loot all the dead splicers and pick up any untriggered trap rivets, then leave the garage through its north exit. Turn left just past it to find a side area with a supply crate.
  • 2 of 8: Past the next bend in the track, look on the left for some crates with an EVE hypo, .50 caliber rounds, and an audio diary on them. Also watch out for a splicer dropping down to ambush you.
  • 3 of 8: There are some bandages on a mattress a bit beyond that, and a splicer to shoot past the next track bend.
  • 4 of 8: Check for supplies in side areas as you move down the track to a big science exhibit.
  • 5 of 8: After you reach the science exhibit, keep looking for supplies as you make your way to a doorway on the left side of the track that's labeled "RIDE MAINTENANCE."
  • 6 of 8: Past the "RIDE MAINTENANCE" doorway, check the big puppet figure workshop for items.
  • 7 of 8: Go down the stairs on the west side of the workshop to find some potato chips and cash next to a searchable locker.
  • 8 of 8: Just past that is a room with a vending machine, followed by the room with the wall vent you're after.
